Booklist Review

Several workhorses of the vehicle world join the ranks of the Wild about Wheels series (8 new titles) with these new installments. Each book presents its subject in three brief chapters--composed of short, easy-to-read sentences--that introduce what its vehicle does and its key features, inside and out. Colorful headings and bolded, glossary-defined vocabulary help young readers navigate the text, while stock photos add visual interest and support on every page. Whether blasting through blizzards or spreading salt and sand on icy roads, Snowplows highlights plows' two main blade types (curved and v-shaped) and special tires for driving on snow and ice. In each volume, a two-page, labeled diagram follows the main text, reviewing its vehicle's primary features (cab, compactor, blade, etc.), after which a simple activity prompts readers to synthesize what they've learned by drawing or conducting an experiment. These solid, nonfiction texts offer more information than many similarly focused series.
